History of Typography Playing Cards
We designed a set of playing cards using four historical eras important in the development of lettering as the four suits. In addition to the typography theme, each suit features letters from 1/2 of the alphabet (so two entire alphabets are illuminated in this deck). The following introduction to the suits is printed on a cover card:
They are 2-3/4 x 4-1/4", printed in crisp black ink on 100 lb matte-coated cover stock. (Note: these cards were designed as a client gift for our parent company, Capacis.)
You can buy the whole deck or just a suit for using in collage projects.
